Alumni Speaks

Being part of the oldest IIT in the country, VGSoM offers you an
unmatched campus experience that you will not find in a stand-
alone business school. You are taught by top-notch faculty mem-
bers from various departments, you have access to excellent in-
frastructure and sports facilities, and the lack of city-life attractions means
you end up developing stronger bonds of friendship within the campus. Over
the years, VGSoM has developed into one of the finest business schools in In-
dia. If you compare course fees and placement statistics, you will find that the
immediate return on investment is very high. And in the long run, the coveted
“IITian” tag enhances your credibility, whether you apply for a job or plan
to study abroad. Pursuing higher studies also becomes easy because you
get a degree rather than the postgraduate diploma that most other business
schools in India offer.

Batch 2001-2003

When I entered VGSoM, I was an Electronics Engineer with an
aspiration to pursue a career in the Marketing function. I left
VGSoM with so much more! A foundation and stepping stone
for a banking career (15+ years in Retail Banking across 4 leading
banks and going strong), unforgettable memories, and most importantly,
friends for life! VGSoM has given me the playground with all the amenities, all
I needed to do was optimize the resources to maximize my potential as per
my aspirations. I am grateful to my alma mater and will always remain a proud
VGSoMite!

Batch 2004-2006

I got introduced to management decision making here at VG-
SoM, though I had worked for 2 years before joining. The compa-
ny of bright classmates, learned teachers and the IIT ecosystem
prepared me for the real world. Even today, when I come across
something new at work, I can often relate to topics which were introduced to
me during the 2 years at VGSoM.
A student who enrolls into VGSoM can expect to gain from the experiences
of his/her classmates, unparalleled pedagogy and most importantly, an un-
derstanding of one’s strengths and weaknesses which helps one’s focus - the
way it helped build my foundation.
